"I may do some shows with Axl around Christmas" - Izzy

[AmyRose]

In the second episode of TuneCore's podcast with Jeff Price, he's done a phone interview with former Guns N' Roses rythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin. In the half hour long interview they talk about making the albums, the rise to fame, leaving GN'R and what happens next. When asked if he'll be out touring anytime soon, Izzy says:
"I may do some shows with Axl out here on the west coast around Christmas"

Didn't see this topic on here yet.

Cool! Glad that his shows on the european tour werent just a flash in the pan. Part of the GnR family....like a distant cousin or something.

Cool Now all we need is for him too write a couple of tunes with Axl again. Man, wouldn't that be something

yes, the prodigal son perhaps. ?Gee, I would think Minneapolis in December would have been a one of Izzy's top choices to join the band. ?I mean, snow, 20 degrees, can't beat it.

thanks!

Good news, I hope they could stay together again  , Izzy and Axl basically made all the lyrics in the old GNR

[JDA]

That's really cool.  I hope he shows up before that at the Minneapolis show.

[flicknn]

wow , he sobered up on December 15th 1989 , interesting he had been partying since he was 15. In 1991 after touring others around him were really out of control.He decided to do something else he went back to Indiana.He hooked up with all friends from grade school.Ice racing and other stuff




He signed a 2 album solo deal with Geffen.And toured with the "hounds" over seas........last Geffen record was in 1995....1996 no label involved...doing independent . ..... that japan tour duff played bass (1996).Good to see him and Duff and him still talk to these days.......did a record up in Seattle ( same place as nirvana)....used 24 track 2 inch tape.like a dog was done in dallas with pro tools....all digital.He's all good with the digital age....weather your grabbing a song or half a album from itunes or whatever

cause he says there is only 3 outlets back when he was 15 , 3 music magazines and thats it.

Izzy is and will always be the mother fuckin' man.

He's just too damn cool.

i agree.

i honestly dont think there is a cooler cat on the planet. im quite jealous.
dont really care if he does the gnr shows mind, it doesnt add or detract from the ultimate coolness he carries. though it would be nice for the fans in attendance.

[flicknn]

That song at the end of the podcast seriously kicks ass

[LeftToDecay]

Would be so Amazing to have Izzy back again. Pernamently, that is.
Finck should go back to Live-NIN where he belongs, giving room for Izzy in GNR. Thus, Aaron North could unite with what's left of Izzy's old solo band.
Possibly under name Aaron's Appetite. They could cover old Izzy tunes and Mr Brownstone. It would be a perfect switch, where everyone wins.
